A MESSAGE FROM MAYOR NENSHI

On behalf of my City Council colleagues and the citizens of Calgary, I am pleased to welcome you to the 2016 International Pipeline Conference.

It is integral that we continue to have thoughtful and informed discussions around the responsible development of pipelines. Conferences such as this provide the opportunity for industry leaders from around the world to come together to share ideas around best practices and innovations that help the sector meet its obligations in a responsible way.

I commend everyone involved in organizing the 2016 International Pipeline Conference including all of the Calgary-based companies who lend their time and expertise to host a successful event.

I hope those of you visiting Calgary have the opportunity to explore everything our city has to offer, from the incredible parks and pathways, to the wonderful dining and shopping experiences. I wish you all a productive and informative conference.

Sincerely,

Naheed K. Nenshi MAYOR

Message from Honourable Rachel Notley

Premier of Alberta On behalf of the Government of Alberta, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the International Pipeline Conference 2016. I commend the delegates here today for their dedication to work together to develop safe, reliable and responsible ways to transport energy. Building and sustaining relationships are key to developing energy solutions that are realistic and secure, now and into the future. Since taking office, our government has strongly advocated for pipelines. In private meetings and in public speeches we have reinforce our position that pipelines benefit not only Albertans but all Canadians. This conference connects experts from around the world to exchange ideas and learn about new and exciting initiatives. From discussions on effective pipeline project delivery and design to reclamation and mitigation, we can all benefit from your shared ideas. I wish you all the best for a memorable and rewarding event. Rachel Notley September 26, 2016

�International Pipeline Conference & Exposition 2016



On behalf of the IPC 2016 Organizing Committee, Technical Committee and Staff, we are pleased to welcome you to Calgary and to the 2016 International Pipeline Conference. Preparation for IPC 2016 began soon after the wrap up of IPC 2014, and has been almost continuous since then. The success of this type of a conference could not be possible without an army of dedicated volunteers who are a truly diverse international group representing industry, government and academia. We’d like to thank those volunteers and our staff for the hours of tireless work that culminates in what you will experience this week. This grass-roots approach continues to ensure that the IPC remains the premier conference dealing with the wide range of issues for pipeline transportation technology.

We also owe great thanks to our speakers, authors, panelists and instructors who have devoted their time and effort to preparing their presentations which you will have the opportunity to attend throughout the week. Lastly, but by no means least, we wish to thank our sponsors who support this conference and through whose generosity we are able to continue to maintain the quality of the venue and program. We recognize that times are tough throughout our industry, so we are grateful that these organizations continue to see value in supporting this conference. We ask that you note their names at the various events and locations, take the opportunity to thank their representatives who are attending the conference, and to visit the booths of those who are taking part in the Exhibition.

The theme for this year’s conference is Leading and Innovating; two characteristics that are critical for this industry to embrace as we continue to improve. These characteristics are reflected in industries collective commitment to not only meet, but exceed the expectations of our stakeholders who demand a world class approach to performance throughout the entire lifecycle of a pipeline.

As in previous years, this conference is dedicated to disseminating technical information to stakeholders for the safest and most efficient technology currently available for the transportation of energy and commodities. While we’ve seen a decline in frequency of failures, regrettably they continue to occur. The knowledge sharing among the attendees at IPC will contribute to the design, operation maintenance and regulation of pipelines that enhances safety, efficiency and reliability.

You will notice some changes with IPC 2016, most notably we are going green - cutting down substantially on the amount of printed material. Delegates can access all information through personal devices that can connect through the IPC-provided WiFi. We have introduced a new conference app that can be used to review scheduling, technical paper abstracts and other key conference communications and updates. The layout of the conference has also been modified to promote a better overall experience for all delegates. Finally, in the spirit of continuous improvement, we’ve refreshed the IPC logo for IPC2018 and beyond to reflect the global nature and reach of this conference.

This year’s Distinguished Lecture Series honors David J. Horsley, and recognizes his significant technical contribution to the pipeline industry. Mr. Horsley has been generous in his contribution to the International Pipeline Conference as an author, track chair, and Technical Committee Chairman. He is also a contributor to many industry organizations such as API, ASME, CSA, EWI, PRCI, and others. Mr. Horsley will be presenting a lecture summarizing some of his IPC contributions in line with the conference theme of leading and innovating.

IPC is operated as a non-profit event. The surplus revenues from the 2016 conference will be used to finance the 2018 conference, as well as provide funding for research and educational opportunities in the area of pipelines under the International Pipeline Conference Foundation and the ASME Pipeline Systems Division.

We hope that in addition to the conference technical sessions, you will take advantage of the many social opportunities such as the luncheons and dinners, as well as the Networking Reception on Wednesday evening, along with the hospitality offered by the City of Calgary.

We would also welcome feedback and suggestions for improvements that you may have, either in person or by responding to the conference survey. We can also be contacted through the IPC website - www.ipcyyc.com and email [email protected].
